Overview

Cottage charm meets urban village living

This classic semi-detached house combines charming cottage appeal with the convenience of urban village living, located at the top end of Wells Street in Newtown. Positioned on the sunny north-east corner of a pair, the single-storey residence is set on an unexpectedly deep block of approximately 170 square meters, offering immediate comfort and exciting potential for future development.

The property is fronted by a picket fence, enhancing its street appeal. Inside, the interiors are simple and timeless, featuring bright and easy-to-live-in spaces with a functional layout. The home includes two large bedrooms with new carpeting, including a king-sized main bedroom, providing ample space for comfortable living.

The living room is a welcoming area anchored by a distinctive curved feature fireplace, creating a cozy atmosphere. Adjacent to this is a separate dining room and a tidy gas kitchen illuminated by a skylight, making meal preparation a pleasant experience.

One of the standout features is the large backyard, which includes a paved courtyard and a storage shed. This expansive outdoor space invites creativity and offers plentiful room to extend the home or add a second storey in the future, subject to council approval (STCA).

Convenience is further enhanced by rear lane access via Darley Lane, leading to secure undercover parking, a valuable asset in this walkable neighborhood. The location is ideal for those seeking a lifestyle within easy reach of local amenities, with eclectic cafes and dining options on South King Street just footsteps away.
